For kids’ art projects, a clothesline…

And did you know, that an old table cloth work great as a drop cloth for kids’ painting projects?

And when you’re done with said art project, be sure to keep all large pieces of artwork to use them later as wrapping paper for gifts. We did this recently for another child’s birthday party gift and the unique wrapping paper was a hit with kids and parents.

Thanks for the tip. I created one with ribbon and tacks across my mantle and wall to display my little guy’s creations, but I hadn’t even thought of putting them up there to dry (as long as they aren’t dripping!). Great blog – can’t wait to read more tips!
